This was one of the most disturbing and heartbreaking things I’ve seen in my lifetime. But it is very important that we keep this civil.
This wasn’t just a black man. It was a human being and I just hope that we keep that rhetoric. I do not like it when the media tries to divide us. No one stands for this. No one.
This is pretty sad and disgusting to see. I really hope all people take great care in every contact with police officers. Not all officers are bad but we should know there is a potential for abuse in every interaction we have with them.
